A 30-year-old Nigerian woman in Delhi has tested positive for monkeypox, making it the city’s eighth and the country’s 13th case of the viral disease, sources said on Friday.

The woman was admitted to Lok Narayan Jai Prakash Hospital, they said.

Another person suspected to be suffering from monkeypox was also been admitted to the Delhi government-run hospital, sources said.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
